Writing for July

With help from my friends, I realize that a writer needs to keep at her craft. I have accepted an writing "challenge" (for lack of a better word) to post something every day in July -- a poem, prose, anything that I have written. I accepted as a way to keep myself writing every day, but also to read what my fellow writers have posted and to think about their work and be inspired by it.

Feel free to check back here every few days in July. I will be posting something nearly daily. Happy Reading!!

Vision

A door closes.A window opens.People shoutJump, jump.

It takes a far-sighted personto see the encroaching darknessis not a void, but a pair of wingswith which to fly.

About Me

I am an active member of Brookland Area Writers and Artists for the last 5 years.
I have participated in readings for Support Woman in the Arts Now an international festival of women in the arts.
Most recently my poetry has been featured in "Poetic Art" at the Lorton Workhouse Arts Center and "Ofrenda" at the Torpedo Factory. Both pieces were in collaboration with my sister's art. I have published poems in Bark I, Bark II, the Unrorean, Rhythm Newsletter, and "Archeology of Myself".
